Transfer and AVicious, the VJ/Performance Video Design team out of Los Angeles CA, have worked together for many years. The collaboration began while working with John-Ryan Shea of The Visual Underground and then when TVU disbanded it migrated to JRS' new visual collaboration with partner and commercial Art Director Jeremy Glaholt - later named AVicious. We have toured together, created together and shared many a late night conversation in the back of a van on where the mediums of audio and video could go. Recently AVicious has pulled away from performing at many of Transfer's shows due to scheduling issues. So what has happened with the collaboration?
Last December Transfer and AVicious began working on a new installation project based on the song 'Enojado' from the new record Future Selves which Transfer released late last year. Enojado is an exploration of music video and live interactive space. Currently moving away from Stage 1 of the project, AVicious is beginning work on space design and electronic integration. What is coming is a new way to experience the band, the music and the medium itself. We will be updating our website with logs on our progress so please come by and check us out - AVicio.us. Below is a preview of the work done during Stage 1. XO

CRASH ENCORE:
For full Visual Underground info, click 'keep on reading'.
In 2006 Jon Bishop began writing and recording a refreshing style of music with Bryan Stratman at Capricorn Studios in downtown San Diego. This music had a different feel, still with that familiar hook, but with a new depth. Soon John and Bryan knew this creative energy was not to be ignored and Crash Encore was born. Guitarist TJ Royer, Jackson Price, a master of bass, vocals and flute and drummer Mike Cooper currently complete this dynamic puzzle.
As a follow up to their debut album, Volume I, Crash Encore is defying convention and releasing free songs all of 2009 at crashencore.com
When not in the studio Crash Encore can be seen performing live at venues such as the Casbah, Anthology, the Belly Up, and The Hard Rock Hotel Las Vegas. The band has also appeared on NBC's Concerts in the Square, several local and national radio stations, and was nominated for San Diego Music Award's "Best New Artist" in 2007.

REPUBLIC OF LETTERS:
The unique sound of Republic of letters sound is a clash of frenetic indie rock with more atmospheric and melodic sounds that reach out with an art rock edge. The band was originally formed by brothers Chris Venti (vocals, guitar) and Nick Venti (drums) in 2005. With the addition of Martin Niwinski (bass guitar) and later following Adrian Thorstensen (guitar) in 2006, the band has really come into its own sonically and creatively.
Republic of Letters developed their sound, rich with heart-swelling choruses, energizing rhythms and passionate vocal performances influences such as The Who, Editors, U2, Bruce Springsteen and The Police. When they set foot on stage, the band is determined grab a hold of the shirt collars and hearts of every listener and naysayer.

FEATURED ARTISTS:

KELLY ORANGE:
I love Orange.
I love Paper.
I love ink & paint & glue & sand & things that look messed up.
I like silly creatures, bright colors, & blood & guts.
I’m drawn to texture, layers, repetition, posters, music & red wine.
I like to see something new every time I look at a painting.
I like how color and texture interact to create a mood, a feeling.
I like how all these things can change over time.
I like how the vein on my forehead is prominent. I do.
“As a kid I was constantly taking things apart to see how they worked. I remember watching open-heart surgeries on video with my parents who both worked in the Operating Room as perfusionists (someone who runs the heart-lung machine). I believe I got my perverse love of blood and guts because of this…
“In grade school my interest in the workings of nature was fueled through biology. Cytoplasm, cells, mitochondria, & basic elements fed my curiosity. How things came to be on a microscopic level. A year after I moved to Santa Cruz for college I decided, after jumping from science to psychology to science and back again, that art held all kinds of mysteries and more. I’d always expressed myself through drawing, writing, collage & painting, but as more of a hobby, rather than my main focus. Research, visual representation, & seeing how things come together to make a final whole were all part of the process, just as in science. I’m drawn to the unknown…Art is my safety net as well as the cliff I have to jump off of in order to get to my next destination.
“Sometimes I begin work without a vision, just a need …painting, layering, painting, layering until form begins to creep in & I guide it to life. Sometimes I set out to an end…and sometimes I get there, but most of the time my paintings & prints are a personal reaction to whatever is happening on Lost.
“No, not really.
But kind of…
“Since 2003 I’ve been back in San Diego, where I’ve found a flourishing community of like-minded crazy artists who have pushed me to new levels. In 2006, I began working on a project called Fruit of the Soul and have been designing and printing t-shirts, posters and CD covers through Orange Friendly, as well as working full time for Specialty Produce taking care of whatever falls under the umbrella of Community Affairs.”

JESSICA A TEHAN:
“I am a firm believer in the merit system. I believe that with triumph of effort and no holes barred one can achieve anything. There is nothing more rewarding to me than putting in a good day of being the best Mother I can be to my four wonderful children, knowing I left nothing unattended. And when the time permits, in the hours and minutes between naps and baths I am able to express myself artistically, by all means…that is the best day done.
I have continually obeyed my inspirational tendencies for the better part of these last two decades and have seen progress in myself that exists solely from the effort of persistence. Hurrealism, a term which suits best the description of what it is I do, lends even more interest to the meaning behind the imagery. A word developed to correlate with Surrealism, and my spin on how that genre of art applies to me.
At the end of the day, I work hard at my responsibilities, never losing sight of what is dearest to my heart. Equally rewarding, is the satisfaction of knowing not only am I capable, I am wholeheartedly willing…for you see… I believe that I can and will, have my cake and eat it too.” WEB: SDVAG.NET

Band of Skulls, Live at X1FM. 7.31.09
Band of Skulls performed live at X1FM.com on Friday before their Casbah show. I knew that since I was working at the Casbah that night, and knowing that Transfer and Apes of Wrath could sell out the Casbah on their own, I wouldn't really get the opportunity to see the band, so Jeff and I went to the Open Door Session in National City. Since the show was earlier than most Open Doors, there were just a few of us there, but we were blown away by Band of Skulls and the performance they delivered. I normally wouldn't video there because the station does such a good job of editing the videos and allowing me to post them, but they might take a few days and I hope that if anyone is contemplating checking them out as they continue to tour that you are won over by this video. Do not miss this band.
I will mention that the show that night was just as packed as I expected so I could really only hear the show in pieces from the patio but it was an amazing night from all three bands and the party that ensued after was pretty damn cool, too.

Transfer about to blow up Rogue Hero - Dangerous!
We rolled into Bellingham after one hell of a fucking night in Seattle. The Tractor Room rocked and it was good to meet some great Seattle homeys. I have some great video to post up when I get back.
I am currently sitting on the near outskirts of a sweaty people pit. This club is packed and its only the opener. The club is cool enough but I have to say that I may not live through this one. I have only been nervous for my gear once before.
We will be streaming live from Seattle tomorrow. Check us out on Twitter @AVicious - updates hourly.
Posted up safe and sound and I will write later. Bellingham WA is about to go off!!!

SXSW: Lady Dottie & the Diamonds Performance
Myself and Jeremy Glaholt of AVicious were riding around on bikes during a day off at SXSW and stopped in for a beer at a joint near a friend's house only to stumble onto some San Diego friends. M-Theory owner Eric Howarth was there with some of his bands and so I caught this performance by Lady Dottie & the Diamonds, jumped back on the bike and headed out to see more music. This so happen to be one of the best days I have had in a very long time. More SXSW video coming soon but feel free to follow us on Twitter, YouTube or check out our blog as well.

AVicious plays "All Systems Go" - photo recap
SEE MORE AT AVICIO.US
If anyone has been to see Transfer in the last year or so you may have noticed that they have a lighting/video show that sets them apart from the pack. What you may not have noticed before is the video team that puts together it all together and plays it live - that's right PLAYS THE VIDEO LIVE via MIDI interfaces (at the Casbah, look towards the sound booth). We understand that the stage at the Casbah isn't quite the size to fit us and Transfer and so we resign ourselves to the dark and murky corners of the club so that the Transfer boys can shine. Well that changed this last Saturday when Matt Fraynd from Glorybound Productions offered up a stage at the debut of "All Systems Go" located at the Ruby Room for AVicious to rock themselves. We accepted the invitation to play along with DJ Groundfloor and Istatic for the night. What we didn't bet on were the hangovers that followed us from Austin.
AVicious took off from SXSW, where we were playing the Obscure Magpie 14-hr Party, at 8am with a rich sweat that only comes from humid weather and whiskey. The wrap party was the night before and we hit it hard thus getting to San Diego was a painful endeavor. I will not bore you with all of the details but we landed, picked up the vehicle, loaded in and hit the hotel for a nap. It was our oasis.
Here are some of the photos from the night:
